Informazione sulla pubblicazione:Global ethical challenges in the light of the encyclical Laudato Si' and the Jubilee of Mercy

In the light of both the Jubilee of Mercy (2016) and the Encyclical Laudato Si' , this article analyzes some global ethical challenges, which reflect an unmerciful world, and makes some suggestions for a new lifestyle based on mercy, gratuitousness, fraternity, and the common good. It is emphasized the fact that the human family "is the first and most important school of mercy" . We need to put into practice that kind of merciful relationships which we usually experience at home during childhood and that help us to discover the real face of our heavenly Father and the mystery of the Trinitarian "We" . The future of our common home depends on it.
